To repeat—you seem to imply that LDS is a cult. Do you personally believe that to be true? I’ll give you my answer: I don’t.

Well dialogue-prone you're not; ejonesie's right. But at least a smab of your comments serve as a proper footstool for comments worth addressing to other lurkers. (I guess you somehow missed the "cult-like" elements from the original article...here, I'll point a few out for ya):

From the article: According to the Encyclopedia of Mormonism, "Gods and humans are the SAME SPECIES of BEING, but at different stages of development in a divine continuum, and the heavenly Father AND MOTHER are the heavenly pattern, model, and example of what mortals can become through obedience to the gospel." The Mormon claim is, "What God was, we are. What God is, we will become."

Here's another article tidbit: Related to this is the teaching that the world was not created ex nihilo but organized into its present form, and that the trespass in the Garden of Eden, far from being the source of original sin, was a step toward becoming what God is. Further, Mormonism teaches that there is a plurality of gods. Mormons dislike the term "polytheism," preferring "henotheism," meaning that there is a head God who is worshiped as supreme.

You certainly have trouble with reading comprehension. My query is NOT in regard to what the third party sources say—I can read that myself. I am asking what the individual poster believes.

Really, you’re not adding much and are just making yourself look silly by displaying certain unseemly pedantic affectations.

I do wish you ANTIs would just QUIT using words from my beloved LDS Organization® to point out seemingly contradictory teachings.
